Hi there Russ and Stewart.
Russ the grass you can buy in sheets from a European source no static machine needed, as to the vines again from Mini Natur of Germany. They have a great selection of scenic items.
So a picture of the complete idear it has only taken four goes.
A little banana port, half buildings half water.
Two road narrow gauge railway, one road into the shed the other for the wharf.
Everything is removable to change the theme.
Size 600 mm long,375 mm wide-24 inches by 17 inches.
Scale 1/35 to 1/32.
16.5 mm track code 80 rail.
All the very best everybody.

Moving along.

Hi all as usual wishing you all good health.
"Down the Back" as usual has been very busy
The water tank now has a nozzle left over from the steam days, but still useful to water the garden.
And  the old open-passenger car on a scale of 1/32 is going into the shop  for a bit of a cut and tuck to bring it down to the useful size of 1/35.
Cheers Kim.

Hi Russ and Bernard.
As  always, it is a pleasure.
The Shed Down the Back.
The location is a small cover or eatery. and it is low tide no water just mud and sand.
To aid navigation a banner is needed.
Green-on the right side.
cheers

[Ray Dunakin]

Nice! I love that tiny loco.

Evening all, how are you doing?
Cheers Ray.
So, a little model: The shed down the back needs a shallow-drafted boat with a flat bottom that looks good when the tide is out.
So here we have a start of a little steam-powered trader size 300 mm long by 100 mm wide.
The boiler looks about the right size.?
All the very best
